Old Postcard of Nether Padley - Maynard Arms & Grounds

As well as showing a view of the Maynard Arms Hotel, and its
grounds, this old postcard also shows the former mill pond
associated with Padley Lower Mill, which was midway downstream
between Padley Upper Mill and the confluence of Burbage Brook
and the River Derwent.

The Mill has been disused for many years. In fact the earliest
detailed Maps - surveyed in 1875, and revised up to 1922 - show it
was already in Ruins; and in the present day, may even have been
subsumed by a rubbish “tip”.
